HOMESTEAD BOUND!!

WHEN MY HUSBAND ASKED IF I WANTED A PARTY FOR MY 40TH, OR A WEEKEND AT THE HOMESTEAD, THE DECISION WAS EASY. SERIOUSLY, IF I DON'T GET AT LEAST ONE WEEKEND A YEAR AT THIS PLACE, I MIGHT HAVE WITHDRAWAL !! HANDS DOWN THE HOMESTEAD IN HOT SPRINGS, VIRGINIA IS MY LITTLE HEAVEN ON EARTH.

LIFE AINT BAD AT THE HOMESTEAD......

 MY FAVORITE NEW ADDITION TO THE HOMESTEAD IS THE NEW BAR OFF THE HEART OF THE LOBBY! FUN LITTLE PLACE TO GET A COCKTAIL AFTER DINNER IN THE MAIN DINING ROOM......

THE LOBBY BAR

WHEN YOU WANT TO GET AWAY AND DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, THESE LOBBY SEATS ARE VERY APPEALING! WE BROUGHT BACKGAMMON AND PLAYED GIN FOR HOURS...LOVE DOING NOTHING!!

 AND IF YOU DONT WANT TO SIT IN THE MAIN LOBBY, GO TO ALL THE OTHER AREAS....YOU CAN GET LOST IN THIS PLACE.

 THE MURALS IN THE PLACE ARE OUTSTANDING. MOST OF THEM WERE PAINTED BY VIRGINIA ARTIST LEE BASKERVILLE....CHECK HIM OUT!
